300

I was wondering when I'd see that 3 in front of the other two numbers in my weight.  I went to the doctor today.  She's going to back date all of my gastric bypass forms for insurance.  She said, "you've been at this for quite awhile, there's no reason to start from scratch and make you more miserable."  She asked about my back and I told her it's always been shitty.  Then I started bawling.  Just from a culmination of horse shit.  She's got me on 2 muscle relaxers now.  One has a pain killer in it.  If that doesn't work I'm supposed to call in.  She had me stand and try flexing my back in different positions.  Then she had me lay down and tried lifting my legs.  She could barely move my left leg because my hamstrings are so tight, so I'm supposed to really try and stretch those.
I still feel like shit, and the cats have done nothing but piss me off today, so I'm playing Left 4 Dead with Nathan in an attempt to cheer up.

  1. I'm glad they gave you something for all the discomfort. Nice to hear the compassion from the doctor, too.
    Good luck with the game (Left 4 Dead). Hope it brings you lots of smiles and laughter. xx

  2. She's the greatest. That's why I commute to Newton for her. Playing Left 4 Dead didn't help, but I just took a little nap and feel about 100x better.
